This site has "Marketplace" section where you can create a post:

https://mbworld.org/forums/market/ve...enz-63/amg-s20

Also Craigslist, carguru.com, cars.com and many other sites will work. At the worse, you might consider a trade-in, but expect the dealer / shop to lowball you.

Regards.

2005 SL55 AMG Performance package, does over 320km/h
Car was originally from the USA has rebuilt title from over 13 years ago. Was repaired by the top facility in Canada who does the department of National Defense vehicles.
Is fully loaded and was over $190,000 CAD at purchase price. Has only 64,000km and has new motor with about 35,000km. Has $6000 rims as well as the stock rims.
Was asking $35,000CAD for it but now under 30k. Paid $45,000CAD for it a few years ago.

$30k CAD is about $23k USD, which will buy a very nice clean title and clear history SL55 without any questions related to engine replacement. You're typically lucky to get about 60% of clean title value for a salvage title vehicle.
